Description

I am happy to invite you to this amazing hike in the Caucasus Mountains, the largest and highest mountain area in Europe!

Come and join me in this amazing trekking adventure through the Caucasus Mountains, just in the middle of the Black and the Caspian Seas.

Unlike in the Alps, in the Caucasus Mountains you will have a feeling of treading on an absolutely remote and unknown land. That is what makes this trip a unique experience.

The chosen place will be the Bezengi valley, surrounded by an incredible wild environment far from the urbanity. Many people say that this is the most spectacular trekking spot in the Caucasus Mountains. The scenery shows high peaks around, some of them over 5000 meters of altitude, as well as impressive glaciers.

The trailhead will be the Bezengi Camp at 2000m. It is a place with all the services and facilities you can imagine: hospitality, local cuisine, pub, warm wooded houses and a relaxing sauna. From there I will guide you through green moraines with the most outstanding views around us.

After entering the depth of the valley, we will find one of the most incredible places of the Caucasus Mountains: the Bezegi Wall. It is 12 km long rocky barrier sharper than a knife.

Regarding our campsites, during the trek we will rest in tents in really charming places. We’ll spend incredible nights in the middle of lush greenery or by the side of some turquoise lagoons.

For those in search of a bigger challenge I can also offer some summit attempts (in easy peaks). The prices of this trekking expedition will vary according to your individual needs and expectations.

So, get in touch with me for further information or if you want to continue with the reservation process. It will be my please to lead this hiking adventure in the heart of the Caucasus Mountains.

Mountain Guide

I am a fully certified IFMGA guide since 2012. I have, however, mastered my climbing and skiing skills for many years before taking up guiding. I have participated in numerous climbing expeditions not only to the wild mountains of Caucasus (which I have gotten to know pretty well), but also to Nepal, Alps and have extensively climbed in many Norwegian areas. In recent years I have been resident in Norway, and I co-operate with my friends at Lyngen Outdoor Center as their chief mountain guide.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
